In addition to buying and selling products, we will also offer "experiences" unique to the virtual space, such as riding on vehicles, watching movies, and participating in live music at the venue. Furthermore, communication between visitors is possible, and you can enjoy a sense of immersion as if you were touring the city together in the real world.

``Recommendation of public baths. ”
Produced by BEAMS JAPAN in 2019 to widely disseminate the good old Japanese public bath culture. Approximately 550 public baths in Tokyo were decorated with original noren curtains, a public bath information magazine officially recognized by the Tokyo Bath Association was published, and a stamp rally was held across public baths in Tokyo. We also developed goods including the "Cow Brand Orange Box," which is the first collaboration product for Milk Sekidan. This year, with the theme of sports, manga artist and writer Mari Yamazaki has drawn an illustration, which will be featured as a special public bath painting at Kotobukiyu in Higashi Ueno, Tokyo. We have also planned a ``Public Bath Run Recommendation'' where you can enjoy public baths in combination with running. We are also selling goods that allow you to enjoy public baths in combination with sports.
